The dead never stay buried.

Within the blink of an eye, Meaghan Torres' life has taken a sordid turn. An ordinary family visit has turned into a nightmare from which she may never wake. People are turning into zombies, eager to feast on the flesh of the unsuspecting.

Though staying alive may prove to be a tad cumbersome, it's a feat she'll make sure to accomplish by any means necessary. Her family's safety is of the utmost importance and she'll do everything possible to keep everyone together. Setting out to discover whether there are others still alive out there, she'll need to gather the limited resources available along the way.

The cause of the undead epidemic is a mystery no one has been able to decipher; one Meaghan makes it her mission to uncover. Someone has left several clues behind, but the pieces of puzzle aren't that forthcoming. Never-the-less, she's determined to seek the answers to her questions while fighting the undead in the process.

What she needs to know is just around the corner. If she's to succeed with her goals, she'll need to keep herself and those she's taken under her wing alive, at all cost. Battling the undead at every turn, Meaghan must find a way to set all wrongs to right before her life and those she loves are forfeit.

It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in. Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice.

When you are infected with the virus, there are four stages. 1) Your fever will shoot up and everything will become intensified on a maximum level. You'll lose grip on what's reality and what's illusion. 2) You'll start to slowly fall down the rabbit hole, forgetting the past and everything and everyone that you knew. 3) You face your imminent death. 4) You wake up with a pressing hunger for the living. It's been seven months since the pandemic hit with this virus and the world has been ravaged and left to ruins. Society has crumbled to nothing and more than three fourths of the population have been infected with the mysterious virus that took the world by storm. The virus has turned anyone infected into crazed flesh-eating freaks, with decrepit skin and red puffy eyes. The only way to kill them is by obliterating the brain. Elise Alice Gordon, Lease for short, led a simple life until the virus hit. Seven months later she is just barely scraping by. She's done what she's had to do to survive, and in that process she has created demons that haunt her every time she closes her eyes. See, it hasn't been easy trying to live in a dead world. She's lost friends, family, and everything she's ever known. The only thing she hasn't lost is her humanity and her hope. But she's afraid she's starting to. Because in this new world, there's only her, the dead, and the restless. © 2012 by Ashtyn Mane. All rights reserved.
